Gravitational Burst waves dectected around Betelgeuse!! About to go supernova?
[link to earthsky.org (secure)]
The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) and Virgo detectors recorded a “burst” of gravitational waves this week, from an area of sky near the red supergiant Betelgeuse. This unanticipated burst has been dubbed, for now, S200114f. It’s prompting some interesting chatter on Twitter because Betelgeuse has undergone an unusual dimming in recent weeks, and some astronomy enthusiasts have wondered if it were about to explode. Betelgeuse has not exploded. It’s still there. Still, a supernova explosion of Betelgeuse might be linked with a gravitational wave burst. As Jackson Ryan explained on CNET last night (January 14, 2020):

Hate to burst your bubble, but if your right, it exploded over 600 years ago, as it is 600 or so light years away.

Who knows how long it took to go "boom". But at 600 light years, I doubt we have much to be worried.

If it was within 10-50 light years, I would be worried.

Still pretty damn close.

What if we are/were directly in its aim? Wouldn't it be even more dangerous than viewing it from the "sides"? I think we would be f*cked in some ways.

When Betelgeuse goes supernova it will last more than 2 weeks. At its peak it will be as bright on Earth as a full moon, it will actually cast Shadows. It will be the brightest supernova modern humans have seen because it is closer to earth than the last one in the 80's that created the crab nebula.

A gamma ray burst from a supernova explosion has been proposed as the cause of the end Ordovician extinction, which resulted in the death of nearly 60% of the oceanic life on Earth.

I believe the safe zone is 50 to 100 light years plus away from any Supernova, so one assumes that 600 light years would be a safe distance..

Betelgeuse supernova could turn night into day with explosion which would outshine Moon

In December, Betelgeuse went from one of the top 10 brightest stars visible to the naked eye to the 21st – of roughly 5,000 which can be seen. This would suggest it is expected to supernova. When they do, they implode, collapsing in on themselves under their gravitational force before a huge explosion occurs.
The supernova of Betelgeuse will be brighter than any star implosion ever observed from Earth, dwarfing that of the Kepler’s Star supernova, Daniel Brown, a lecturer in astronomy at Nottingham Trent University said.
Kepler’s Star produced a visible supernova in 1604, producing a bright enough light which was visible during the day time for three weeks.

It is possible for the star to have a "micro-Nova" and
NOT a full-on supernova as you can listen to the latest
video from Douglas Vogt:


[link to youtu.be (secure)]
FairUSE

Thread: All Stars Nova on the Clock Cycle...new presentation from Doug Vogt

Also, Ben Davidson had a video out last year that
talked about how we might be able to detect a "nova
trigger event" for our own sun. He claimed that at least
2 stars in the direction of the Galactic Sheet (and the
center point along the Dark Rift where super waves are
known to erupt) have already shown signs of micro-novas.

Will the stars of Orion reach the Galactic Sheet sooner
than our solar system--and if so and there are now
energies detected...could mean we are coming up for one
ourselves soon. (These timelines can be in terms of years
however as one star Davidson mentioned noved in 2012
some 8 years ago...so it WON'T BE TOMORROW!)

That may not be the current model now with Vogt's new
theory. You might want to watch the video I just posted
above...it may only be a micro-nova...not collapsing for
that event.

Etymology for Betelgeuse: from Arabic bayt al-jawzā' Gemini, literally, the house of the twins
[link to www.merriam-webster.com (secure)]

When Jesus was born, there was a supernova followed by the magi and Jesus had a twin called Thomas
Jesus' second coming will take place in the same manner.
